Hi. First of all I have no idea if im allowed to post this and am almost certain this is the wrong forum. I am no way a PC geek but I understand the basics of computing (i.e. RAM and hard drive) I am purchasing a new PC and heard dell where quite good so I found this

sorry that is straight off the dell website so it may be slightly unreadable. This is my 2nd Pc for my 14 year old son and he will be buying it with his own money so I don't want him to be ripped off. He wants for all the up and coming games that the family PC is struggling to run and all the others things teens do like browse the web. Now is this a good PC and should I go ahead and buy it for this price. If its not perfect it wont be worth buying but he does have a limited budget.
Thanks for your time
